Due to continued growth and development, Sedbergh School is now seeking a full time Graduate Resident Assistant (GRA) on a fixed-term basis for 2022/2023 academic year.
This post will be ideally suited to anyone considering teaching as a career, who would like to gain experience in a supportive environment, prior to beginning a PGCE or other teaching training. Working as a teaching assistant in the Senior School will give the experience required to apply for a teacher training qualification and the successful candidate will also be involved in the extra-curricular programme.
Sedbergh is very much accustomed to the training and induction of young staff, with a team of GRAs on both sites, and the successful candidate will be carefully guided through their time here. Many of our previous GRAs have gone on to successful teaching careers, some even within the School itself!
We are looking for candidates who can contribute to the high quality extra-curricular programme, so a qualification or interest in one of the following would be advantageous:
- Sport (rugby, hockey, cricket, netball, running, athletics, S&C)
- Music (including accompanying)
- Drama/Dance
- Outdoor Education
For further information, please view our Candidate Information Brochure, visit the Sedbergh School Vacancies page, or email us on hradmin@sedberghschool.org.

About Sedbergh School
The magnificent location of Sedbergh means pupils can enjoy school life in a safe, healthy and dynamic environment. The opportunities for outdoor activities are almost unlimited - from a walk in the hills to mountain biking, or the calm of fishing to the challenge of caving. While academic study is central for every pupil the experiences of a Sedberghian are not confined to the classroom .
Sedbergh is a School where pupils are presented with a huge range of opportunity. It is a School which expects its pupils to seize the opportunity or, better, create the opportunity. It is our firm belief that it is much better to try something and fail rather than avoiding something because of the fear of failing. This culture ultimately breeds a positive attitude and greatly increases the likelihood of success.
